The White Rhino is, to put it mildly, an imposing beast. They weigh about 6,000 lb, more than most cars, and although their slow and deliberate movements may suggest a sense of gentleness, that's not always the case. They can be pretty fast as well as ill-tempered. This one however seemed to be in a good mood and welcomed a bit of petting and scratching behind the ears.
